2型糖尿病是医师为成人和儿科患者提供医疗护理所遇到的慢性医学病症。这份自传案例报告从与医疗保健系统在管理糖尿病方面的积极和消极相互作用的角度讨论了II型糖尿病，特别是对于一个有色人种和医学代表性不足的医生来说。对于一些被诊断患有糖尿病或根据年龄推测患有糖尿病的人，会出现偏见和假设，身体习性，合并症,生活环境,种族,和种族。我特别针对严格基于种族和族裔的有色人种所经历的偏见的社会影响。加强对医疗保健系统和机构种族主义的认识，保证消除糖尿病医疗管理和治疗中的不平等和差距。
Type two diabetes mellitus is a chronic medical condition encountered by physicians providing medical care to adult and pediatric patients. This autobiographical
case report discusses type two diabetes from the perspective of positive and negative interactions with the healthcare system in managing diabetes mellitus, especially for a physician of color and underrepresented in medicine. Bias and assumptions occur for some people diagnosed with diabetes mellitus or presumed to have the disease based on age, body habitus, comorbidities, lived environment, race, and ethnicity. I specifically address the social implications of bias experienced by persons of color strictly based on race and ethnicity. Intensified awareness about systemic and institutional racism in healthcare warrants eliminating the inequities and disparities in the medical management and treatment of diabetes mellitus.
